My partner and I have been running a small ecommerce business in the sustainability niche. But we are expecting our first baby in Dec and we have been considering options as we want to spend time with the family.

The business has really good reviews, 11.4 k social folllowung, 10% return customers and a lot of processes, unique products products that has helped us carve out our own little blue ocean.

Both the business and we are not at stage where we can justify hiring more to carry it forward and free our time.

I am thinking selling it could be an option? Does anyone here have any experience with ecom store sales, or any tips or idea how much we could sell it for? Also, how i would go about it?

Thanks in advance 🙏

P.S. profits are around 20% but there are ways that things can be streamlines

if you have built a successful ecom store in the sustainability niche it's understandable that you would want to explore your options when it comes to spending time with your growing family. selling the store could be a viable solution. you could try reaching out to brokers or marketplaces that specialize in ecom store sales to get a better idea of how much your business could potentially sell for. best of luck and congrats on your upcoming addition to the family! 🎉
